Chapter 178 The arrival of slaves (5000)(1/2)
"Jack, I hope you didn't lie to us this time. If we spent so much money but didn't make a dime, when we go back, wait for us to absolutely tear you apart!" A pirate with an iron hook on his hand
Changchun Jack threatened.
Jack said sarcastically: "It's now time, you have to believe me. Besides, I've invested so much myself, right?"
Since Jack returned to Thousand Islands, he has actually thought for a long time about whether to do population business with the Black Dragon Clan.
Although bound by the contract, the Black Dragon Clan could not take action against him, but what if there were other loopholes? He did not dare to guarantee his life.
As for the restraint of the contract on him, that actually doesn't matter. Even if Jack sends a cannon fodder and pulls a slave over in a small boat, the contract has been fulfilled.
So in the first two days after returning home, he was actually fighting with his own heart, making a lot of money for himself, and losing his life if he failed.
In the end, unable to resist the greed in his heart, he gritted his teeth and decided to give it a try.
But he felt that it was not enough to go alone. He had to get some people to go with him. This would not only strengthen his courage, but also increase his chances of escaping at a critical moment.
So, after a lot of effort, he finally convinced the pirate captains on several small islands in the Thousand Islands Kingdom to join him in this slave business.
Several captains put together a total of 21 pirate ships, transporting more than 10,000 slaves at one time, because Giovanni had said before that the high slave purchase price he offered was only valid for the first time, and would not be used later.
It may go down.
According to the price list given to them by Giovanni, they purchased a large number of children with the highest profit, so all the children in the slave market of the Thousand Island Country, whether they were humans or orcs, were swept away by them.
In the end, if there were no more, they reluctantly bought more than 4,000 female slaves and some scattered craftsmen on the remaining ships.
In order to earn more gold coins, 21 ships were loaded with "cargo". There was not a trace of extra space on the ship, but some died during transportation.
But acquiring so many slaves at once cost several captains a lot of money, and they were really afraid that Jack was lying to them.
Therefore, in order to win their trust, Jack did not even stay on his own ship, but was under the supervision of other pirate captains throughout the entire process.
As the destination got closer and closer, the captains became more and more nervous, including Jack himself.
"We're here! We're here!" As soon as he saw the "island" that once brought him infinite fear, Jack knew that he had reached his destination.
Just when several captains were about to send people to row boats to report to the Black Dragon Clan, a large number of "birds" suddenly appeared on the sea, and heads one after another emerged from the sea. They were surrounded!
"The Kraken! It's the Kraken!"
Sirens, yakshas, and fishmen are the nightmares of sailors at sea. It's no wonder that they screamed when they saw Allen's men.
"Don't do anything, I'm Jack, we're doing business with the Black Dragon Clan." Jack stood on the deck, waving to the sky and shouting.
The Siren leader lands on a pirate ship: "Are you Jack?"
"Yes, it's me!"
"Master told you to ask me to pay attention. Have you brought the slave we need?"
"I brought them, they're all on the boat."
"Well, you guys take the boat to the coast and wait!" After the Siren leader said that, he flew to the land.
Because Siren did not mention the reward, Jack and the other pirates became increasingly nervous, but they did not look for trouble at this time.
Because they had no time to regret it. The sirens surrounding them on the sea were no joke. They just did whatever the monsters asked them to do.
An hour later, they saw someone approaching the shore. During this period, the pirates even discovered that there were two other merchant ships staying on the coast. The crew members on the ship became very nervous when they saw their skull and crossbones flag, and even drew their weapons as a deterrent.
"Take your thoughts away from me. This is not at sea. If you see a merchant ship, you want to rob it!" Jack warned several pirate captains who were eager to try.
Although it is the duty of pirates to rob merchant ships, it also depends on who is standing behind them!
This caravan is parked on the shore of the Black Dragon Clan, and it is obviously doing business with the Black Dragon Clan. If these pirates dare to rob it, the black dragon will definitely skin them.
The pirates glanced over and found that there were thousands of monsters on the shore, and even several bipedal dragons with a wingspan of more than ten meters landed on their pirate ship, which caused great tension.
They came to inspect the "cargo", as it would be bad if the slaves transported by the pirates were disguised as the army, but when they saw many children, they relaxed their vigilance.
"Captain Jack, long time no see." Giovanni smiled and greeted Jack who was sitting on the boat and rowing over.
"Good day, my distinguished Mr. Giovanni." Only Jack and his crew came to the shore, and the other pirate captains did not dare to come down even if they were killed.
The person who discussed the slave trade with Jack at the beginning was Giovanni, but Giovanni didn't expect that Jack could bring so many ships at one time. They would be full of people. How many would they have?
"A total of 16,000 slaves!" Jack said.
Giovanni was shocked, there were more humans than the "native" people of the Black Dragon Clan! (including Orcs)
"Don't worry, the reward will be yours, and it will still be the price negotiated at the beginning." Giovanni knew what they were worried about, so he comforted them.
Jack finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although he didn't know Giovanni well, he felt that Giovanni didn't lie to him.
Then they started waiting, waiting for what?
Of course, they have to wait for the monsters to repair the pier, because there is no pier, and the ship cannot dock too close to the shore, otherwise it will run aground. If it is pulled by a small boat, there are so many slaves, and I don’t know how long it will take to pull it all.
Therefore, it is necessary to temporarily build a simple dock.
Then some monsters were building a dock, and another group of monsters were digging a hole on the beach, a very big hole.
The pirates who stood on the boat and watched the pirates on the shore were so frightened that their legs were weak, thinking that the monster was setting up a big pot to cook them and eat them.
Actually no, this is a rule set by Allen before. Any foreign slave who wants to enter the Black Dragon Clan must wash his whole body in very hot hot water, including his ears.
Giovanni and the others didn't understand why they were doing this? But Allen knew that cleaning and disinfection was necessary work, and foreign viruses could not be allowed to spread in the territory. What's more, the environment in which the slaves lived was so bad that it was almost like excrement.
If they stay together, they should not carry too many germs.
When the pier was repaired, the hot water pit here was dug, and a large amount of hot water was poured into it.
Then the door of the pirate ship was opened and exuded a stench. A large number of young slaves were kicked out of it. They almost closed their eyes because they hadn't seen the sun for more than ten days.
During the time when slave traffickers and pirate ships, they can only eat a small amount of food every day and can only maintain their lives, so they look weak and weak, and some are even leather.
As one pirate ship passed by one after another, the slaves were also kicked off the boat, but when they saw one terrible monster one after another, there was no bloody face that became pale.
But seeing the monsters did not hurt them, they were no longer so scared. They followed the team blindly, and then were cleaned after one after another.
Seeing them Joewani, he thought of the docile sheep. Even if his companion died in front of him, he would not resist. Perhaps the moment the butcher knife pierced their heart would they called twice.
Numb, no hope for alive, there is no expression on their faces. Perhaps death is a good ending for them.
Since I followed Allen, Joewani felt that the people in this world were not human, and Allen was "human".
His thoughts, his value concept, and all the time influenced this once slave, and also made this alien indigo come a revolution in his inner world.
At that moment, the world view of Joevani was broken. Joewanni felt that the "he" used to be dead? Now the new life is the new idea. He has new ideas.
He hopes to spread this new idea that Allen brings him to more people so that he can save this abnormal world.
But seeing the scene in front of him, Joewanni couldn't see hope. This world really couldn't see a little warmth, making life despair.
Is it their similar kind that turns them into slaves?
Perhaps those people had not regarded the civilians under the same kind.
"This world needs to be pushed down!"
When this view appeared in Joevany's mind, he was startled by himself, but the more he thought, the more he felt feasible.
"Joey! My child see this! It's me, Joey!" A man suddenly shouted. He was not in the slave team, but the Black Dragon clan who came with the monster.
"Dad!" When someone shouted himself, the little boy in the slave team couldn't believe it. His numb face suddenly bloomed with different color.
That is the joy of seeing loved ones.
"Don't stop me, it's my child!" The man wanted to rush across the team to hug his child, but was blocked by the monsters.
Before disinfection, these slaves could not contact anyone.
But the movement here obviously attracted Josani's attention. He was like a black and white world, and he saw the colorful scene.
How touching this scene is.
This man was actually the slave rescued from Jack's pirate ship last time, but he was not alone, he also had his wife and children, but he was intended to sell other places because he was strong because he was strong.
Buy it and be forced to separate with his wife and children in the slave market.
But when he knew that a large number of slaves would be sent to the Black Dragon clan this time, even if there was only one tenth of the hope, he still came here to find his wife and children in the vast crowd.
The final result was that he was found. Although only his son was found, you can't imagine the man crying bitterly when he saw his son.
But the rules are rules after all. Before the little boy has been disinfected, he cannot come into contact with anyone, but some favors can be mixed in.
Giovanni said: "Put this little boy at the front of the line and let him wash first!"
"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir!" The man would kowtow in front of Giovanni and say thank you.
"Go pick up your child quickly, don't wait here."
Yes! Yes, children are important, but there is still a glimmer of hope in a man’s heart. Maybe I can still find my wife?
After joining the team, the slaves around did not complain. Instead, their originally numb faces showed a little carelessness with other emotions, which was called envy.
Once upon a time, they also had families.
Jack wiped the tears from his eyes, it was so touching!
At this moment, he felt that he was committing a heinous crime by selling slaves, and then he drooled and accepted the box of gold coins sent by Giovanni.
Jack: Who am I? I am a pirate! I have no conscience.
